The Idea to Prototype (I2P) program, part of the CREATE-X initiative, offers undergraduate research course credit for you and your teammates to advance your ideas for a potential value creating product by performing basic research, analysis, building, and testing--leading to a proof of concept prototype.   Think of it like undergraduate research--a deep dive on a problem for 1-2 semesters with a mentor. Grants ($) for materials and supplies are available.  Faculty mentors are available if you don't have one.  Open to all majors and years, interdisciplinary teams encouraged to apply. 

 

Steps:

1. Get your idea, team, and faculty mentor together

2. Apply at i2p.gatech.edu by May 5th

3. Decisions and registration instructions will be sent to teams by May 11th

4. Register for undergraduate research course during Phase I (by May 19) or Phase II using information provided. (Aug 21-25)

 

If you're curious to learn what the 26 teams this semester have invented this semester, attend the End-of-Semester Celebration on Thursday, April 27, 5p-7p, in Klaus Atrium. Please RSVP here.
